A visit from a friend

When Sandra was a sophomore in high school she was part of a small group of close knit friends. Whenever something was happening, they always went as a group. One day several of the boys skipped school and went swimming in an old quarry. One of them drowned. She had a difficult time dealing with it and used to pray for him regularly. Quite some time after, he appeared to her in a vivid dream. He was his very gregarious self again, wearing new shiny clothes. He was standing on a platform against which there was a ladder. She felt happy and excited and began to climb the ladder, he said in a clear consoling voice, "Sandra, stop worrying about me, I’m fine." With that the dream ended.

After this dream, she felt whole again and accepted his death. She felt that he had spoken to her from heaven.

They just drop in to say "Hi"

Spirits don’t only come to resolve issues, they may appear just because the opportunity presents itself like friends that drop in unexpectedly and unannounced. Don’t ever be frightened by their appearance, greet them just as though they were in the flesh.
